I talked to one of Breadman’s students and he lost his class minutes into the first semester. Although Mo and D say Breadman never had any class.

Jonathan Toews and Henrik Borgstrom are now in COVID protocol for Blackhawks.

Hope both are OK, but especially Johnny

Yeah very worried for him, given issues and too many anecdotal stories of people who get it again being worse the 2nd time.

Why have I been under the impression that Toews already had Covid. I thought he said it in an interview. Anybody else read or see that and remember where?

If this is purely a locker room problem, is the front office working on trading anybody to create a better locker room? For all we know, the players could have been told that Colliton isn't going anywhere, so they need to figure it out on their own.

The locker room problem has been going on for years. One of the reasons Stan reacquired Shaw was to change the dynamic. Remember last year when Shaw was playing, that was when the team was overperforming. He got hurt, and thing started going and went downhill.

What is this locker room problem, anyway? Can they trade their way out of it? My impression of the Shaw reacquisition was to get the team to start playing with more urgency, to remind them of what it means to compete.

He had his affliction at the beginning, before there was testing. He believes that's what he had, but he never had an official diagnosis.

The Blackhawks will brief reporters on the findings of the Jenner & Block investigation at 1 p.m. today.

Should we start a pool on who will walk the gauntlet for it? My money is on McD.

I say Colliton.

Just a good-natured jab at the board in general, not directed at you.

That's what he and his med team have concluded based on a severe illness in Feb 2020 and the ongoing symptoms consistent with Long COVID.

Yep, I'm pretty sure you are right. Doesn't mean he can't go into Covid Protocol though. Nobody is 100% immune to it, even if they had it once before, especially with variants out there.

@MarkLazerus
Multiple sources say "organizational changes" are coming to the Blackhawks as part of the Jenner & Block findings.

So, I may be wrong about McD...Seems that only Danny and Rocky will be at the presser.

So Shaw was the savior?...and a locker room problem for years? Do you write for TMZ?

That suggests Stan may be out. Or maybe a restructuring of the mental skills apparatus. Or that they've updated the manual.

I'd expect only Rocky and Danny to be there no matter what.

As an aside.... I said "last word to " last night because I was going to just repeat myself, and because it was time to take off my drool cup and hit the sack. I enjoyed the debate.

Yeah, big question, given how many of the coaches who were there in 2010 are now scattered around the NHL. Does anyone who was not in the room where the ultimate decision was made get a pass? The press and the former players really tried to drum up outrage at the players who were there, but I can't see them being held to account.

Why are you being civil? You can’t debate someone with a differing opinion without hating them.

After three cups an amazing decade us Hawk fans have our boxers twisted in a knot. Can you imagine how Leaves fans feel right now? The only highlight of their miserable existence is the carefully planned championship parade was able to be used by the 2019 Raptors

Does ESPN have a "Misery Loves Company" matchup every week? If so, that's these two teams.
